the Amazing digital circus fight club

This is when you lose too, but instead of this, it's when you get hit a lot in the head or neck, you start to drift to other places, and in the worst case, you can end up glitched (10% chance of getting glitched). Another way to remove the abstraction is by taking special headache pills that cost 10,000 credits.

First, your coach takes you out, and you drop a few places in the rankings. In the worst case scenario, you either take your opponent's place or they take yours (the probability is 39%), and you have to rest for a few days and you'll lose some fame.

(Boris' manager, before Jackrabbit)
Todd, Boris's bitter manager, always tries to advise his fighter on strategies to beat his opponent (although he rarely listens), but despite their very opposite attitudes they have managed to get along and form a friendship.
He was originally the manager of the well-known fighter Jackrabbit, but due to some disagreements they ended up separating, causing Tood to be relegated to the cleaning man for lack of a boxer to be assigned to. Despite this, Tood remained very passionate when it came to strategies, always paying attention to each fight and looking for ways in which his non-existent boxer could defend himself.
Todd has always been known for being very observant, thanks to which he discovered absolutely everything about Jax and Able's dirty tricks, but after a "small" threat from both of them, he preferred to remain silent and just continue with his work as manager.

ruthless manager of Zooble)
Boastful, brusque, and horribly proud, no one really knows who or what this woman is. She's Zooble's ruthless manager, whom some other AIs call Duchess—though, of course, no one actually knows her name—and she trains with an iron fist.
Unlike many other contractors, the Queen thrives on profits, manufacturing tools, upgrades, and most of all, heavy armor and gear for her champion.
Due to her terrible sense of fairness at Fight Club, the Queen is banned from entering the arena for being considered a "security risk".

(Jackrabbit's contractor/manager)
One of the few behind the veil of bribery and manipulation at Fight Club, Able is an AI who follows his code a little too literally. A contractor and manager for Jackrabbit, he oversees all the revenue flowing into his rise to power... which includes cheating the system for the company's benefit.
Charming in many ways, Able specializes in revenue, going to any lengths to ensure you stay at the forefront of success. Any lengths.
Far more generous with any audience, Able is made for the spotlight! And he makes sure that nobody takes that away from him or his champion. By any means.

(Pomni contractor/manager/instructor)
An AI integrated into the game's code, Caine works tirelessly as Pomni's contractor, manager, and instructor... but the truth is, he doesn't act like one.
Charming, eccentric, and a disaster with money, his main goal is to make a good amount of cash and income... oh, and help Pomni win the championship. That too.
Unlike many other AIs, and although it is not conscious in any way, it is typical for Caine to sympathize with Pomni's need to escape or succeed, as its code perhaps gives it a bit more experience in human empathy than many believe.

Sweet, polite, but perhaps a little too good for the job, Lila is Ragatha's manager and good friend. Her training methods are a bit... unorthodox compared to more successful contractors, but who cares about the pain!
On good terms with most of the other AIs, Lila pays more attention to the theatrics that come with boxing than to the boxing itself, pressuring her novice to play the part rather than actually be it... Ragatha might as well train herself!
Although skeptical, Lila remains unaware of any wrongdoing at the Fight Club.

A very good friend and a good manager for Starlight. She's not a fan of Starlight getting hurt in matches, but she's still like a little sister to her.
But she feels very uncomfortable around Jax whenever they talk. However, she doesn't feel uncomfortable around Pomni, Ragatha, and Lila, and they get along very well.

Kinger's manager, this AI is a fascinating case. More devoted to her champion than to her own code, Queenie has completely abandoned her role as a contractor and become something of a wife.
She is one of the few AIs made or designed specifically for her champion; Queenie trains less and focuses more on how they can get the most out of it... and climb the ranks, of course.
Although somewhat boastful and indifferent towards anyone other than her champion, Queenie remains oblivious to any wrongdoing that occurs at the Fight Club.

An NPC who wanted to enter the circuit, Gummigoo —Migo for short— is a street fighting AI who controls the city alongside his two companions.
Originally intended to be both a tutorial for new fighters and a tamer of rogue fighters, Migo has not had the best luck in remaining content with his circumstances.
A good friend of Pomni's, he chooses to remain strictly a street fighter, preferring to stay with the trio rather than split up for a league that won't accept him. Despite this, he's terribly suspicious of any wrongdoing that might occur at the Fight Club.

HP: 25,000 | AG: 6 | FROM: 8 | ST: 6
Serious and disciplined, Boris is a fighter who approaches combat with more calm and strategy than most. His manager, Todd, though sidelined and with little power within the Fight Club, continues to give him detailed advice that Boris rarely fully heeds.
Stalled in his progress due to the bad relationship between Todd and the dirty dealings of Able and Jax, Boris remains patient, waiting for the right moment to demonstrate his true potential.
Skills:
"Bone Wall" [DEF]: Solid block that greatly reduces damage received. Cooldown: 12 sec.
"Fang" [ATK]: A precise and calculated strike with constant damage. Can be countered.

HP: 35,000 | AG: 7 | FROM: 4 | ST: 8
Erratic and unpredictable, Kinger is a fighter whose style seems more chaotic than strategic... and yet it works. His manager, Queenie, treats him more like a husband than a boxer, devoting all her attention to him and neglecting formal training.
Despite his disorderly behavior inside and outside the ring, Kinger has an unexpected strength that keeps him firmly in the rankings, surprising more than one rival who underestimates him because of his harmless appearance.
Skills:
"Broken Crown" [DEF]: An erratic defensive move that can miss or block completely depending on the timing. Cooldown: 15 sec.
"Royal Strike" [ATK]: An unpredictable strike with variable damage; it can be devastating or weak depending on your mood. It can be countered.

HP: 70,000 | AG: 5 | FROM: 10 | ST: 5
A skilled fighter at Fight Club and the toughest woman you'll ever meet, Starlight is Jackrabbit's fighting partner and girlfriend. She loves spending time with Jackrabbit all the time, even though they're dating, but it still works.
And she'll kill any girl who gets near her rabbit boyfriend, except for Pomni, because she and Pomni are very close friends. But she and Ragatha are rivals at the Fight Club.
Skills:
"Diamond Shield" [DEF]: Can summon a diamond shield, like Rarity's. And when players hit the diamond shield, it can break.
"Spinning Kicks" [ATK]: An unstoppable downward spinning kick that cannot be blocked, level 60 combo attack move.

HP: 1,500 | AG: 8 | FROM: 10 | ST: 6
New to the game but not to the discipline, Pomni is a critical novice who is here for two things: money and becoming a champion to find a way out.
Although his fighting technique may be a bit over the top, trying to take on more than he can handle, he remains humble with his opponents and rivals due to their similar circumstances... except for one, of course.
Pomni is the culmination of all three types of fighter, although her abilities only improve the higher she ranks, curious to know what else this strangely realistic world has to offer.
Skills:
"Quick Step" [DEF]: Quickly dodges and evades any incoming attack. (Can be canceled and parried).
"Helix" [ATK]: A powerful hook charged throughout the fight. It can be countered, so use with caution!

HP: 30,000 | AG: 10 | FROM: 6 | ST: 5
A master of agility and defense, Slink—or Gangle outside the ring—is the most cunning of them all. With fists like daggers, and ranked 3rd in the leaderboard, Gangle is the best agility-based fighter in the championship.
Gangle gets along well with most of the other fighters and is quite content with her situation in Fight Club, having a few rivalries here and there. She's usually quite outrageous and cheeky, with a good fan base thanks to her charisma. But without her comedic mask, she's the complete opposite!
Gangle remains unaware of any of the Fight Club's hidden secrets.
Skills:
"Dispersion" [DEF]: A counterattack that dodges any ATK or parry move. Cooldown: 10 sec.
"Whiplash" [ATK]: Whips the player across the ring, can cause moderate to critical damage. Can be blocked/parried.

HP: 40,000 | AG: 3 | FROM: 7 | ST: 10
Big, sturdy, and an amalgamated mass of... stuff. Zooble is not someone you want to mess with. Currently ranked 2nd in the championship leaderboard, The Amalgam is the strongest strength-based fighter in the tournament.
Distant and grumpy, Zooble is one of the most fearsome and imposing fighters in the tournament, considering rivals and acquaintances a waste of time. He's not exactly happy, but resigned to his circumstances, he spends his time training and swapping his body parts.
Zooble is skeptical about any of Fight Club's hidden secrets, but he hasn't uncovered any.
Skills:
"Double Block" [DEF]: A counterattack that can counter any ATK or parry move. Cooldown: 20 sec.
"Mazazo" [ATK]: Heavy blow attack with a high chance of critical damage, depending on which arms are used. Can be blocked/parried.

HP: 50,000 | AG: 6 | FROM: 5 | ST: 7
The only human still in the Novice rank, Ragatha is too good for this job. A hard hitter, but too soft for her own good, Lil' Lady is a strength-based fighter.
While sympathizing greatly with Pomni on her journey to win the tournament, although not sharing the exact same motivation, her role is primarily that of an initial tutorial rather than a crucial threat (although she doesn't appear to be one!).
A training partner and good ally, Ragatha hopes that helping Pomni to victory will also improve her own chances of finding a way out. At first it was fun, but now she's tired of it.
Skills:
"Soft Block" [DEF]: Blocks with both arms, absorbing all ATK hits. Cooldown: 10 sec. (CANNOT be countered).
"Beating" [ATK]: Heavy hooks to the front with moderate damage, with a damage boost thanks to his bronze knuckles; they can be blocked and parried.

HP: 60,000 | AG: 10 | FROM: 7 | ST: 9
Pompous, arrogant, and overconfident, Jax—or Jackrabbit—is the great champion of Fight Club... though many speculate whether he truly deserves it.
Envied by all those beneath him, backed by an overly manipulative management team, he manages to maintain his position through sheer dirty tricks. How has no one noticed yet?
Although he doesn't really care, he's curious to know what comes after winning the championship... not that he has any interest in retiring, of course! He remains completely oblivious to the rookie who's rising through the ranks.
Skills:
"Hare Dodge" [DEF]: Blocks and counters all ATK moves and hits. Cooldown: 5 sec. (No stagger).
"Takedown" [ATK]: A flurry of blows with maximum damage that increases in power throughout the fight. (CANNOT be countered/parried).
